OK Folks we are confirmed for Saturday night at Iggy's. We are going to see RSL on 5 screens again but this time RSL will be on the 1 big (7 foot) screen. We have the room from 6pm so we can have a Loyalist meeting from 6-7:30 The match starts at 8pm on KSL, pregame at 7:30. Iggy's has offered to host all televised away matches for us... I say Iggy's is our new home for away matches, barring any major objections. Unfortuanately as of now they do not have Direct Kick but if turn out and demand are good they will get it! So let's make it a win/win for the Loyalists and Iggy's and get as many ppl in the door as possible! Thanks to everyone that showed up Saturday night! Iggy's staff were impressed with us and they look forward to taking care of us the entire season! Viva Real and thanks Iggy's
How was Saturday's watch party? How many people showed up? I couldn't attend but I will most likely be there this Saturday.
It went really well. We had a lot of fun. There were probably about 30 people that showed up which was pretty good considering all of the other stuff that was going on. It was certainly more than I expected. I was pleased with the whole thing overall. I can't wait for this Saturday.
Not to sound flippant or anything, but Direct Kick is only $100 for the season for any commercial establishment. If you can have more than two people show up for a match each week, shouldn't that cover it? Good luck. We're all rooting for you.
MLS is right, Iggy's is being MAJOR LEAGUE cheap if they don't get the Direct Kick package. If I can afford it for $70 then Iggy's can spend $100. And no one is also buying drinks and food at my house... Good job getting this together guys!
I will be passing on the DK info to Dave at Iggy's on Saturday. According to Dave, Direct TV quoted them, because of capacity, over $1000.00, now I am not going to debate that it is $100.00 for the venue regardless of capacity. I am just passing on what the guy said and i will be taking him the "correct" information on Saturday! I am sure they will get it...
Deuce, use this webpage for info when talking to Iggy's: http://www.mlsnet.com/MLS/schedule/tv.jsp All the info you need on getting Direct Kick.
I faxed the info over to Dave at Iggy's Downtown, it is now up to him! If we get the numbers I am sure he will get it! The start time has been bumped to 6:30pm @ Iggy's Sports Grill in Downtown Salt Lake City. Viva Real!
Since RSL didn't score last week, why don't someone create a poll to see who would score RSL 1st goal. That player jersey can then be place in the stadium museum (when it is built). Just a suggestion.
